#LetsBuildOurChurch

On the lighter side:

During the July 21 – 22 weekend, Fr. Manuel Guico will be

conducting a Mission Appeal at our parish. Fr. Guico is from San

Jose, Nueva Ecija, Philippines. The area is devastated by typhoon

– destroying crops of many poor rice farmers. There are 4 retired

priests – 2 with severe medical issues and 24 sisters. Your

financial support will assist and sustain the pastoral programs and

outreach activities.
